Default Help me pick out a graphics theme

I'm seriously considering adding some vinyl graphics to the car. I'd love to see some of your ideas. Some photoshopped ones would be great. Here's a pic you can use, and a link with several other pics.

Anything goes........I'd love to see some subtle stuff as well as some wild stuff. Feel free to remove any sponsor stickers.

Thanks in advance.

I'm not big on graphics and race lookin' stuff but your car is pretty tight as is. Has just the right amount without gettin' too crazy.

Go ahead, maybe you can get the ricin' out of the system for the whole "board community," you've already got a pretty good start. Seriously, i would say, "if you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging..." but you seem to want a big hole (or in this case a flashy (gawdy?) Z). Anyway, you do appreciate your car, not the same way as do I, but I can respect that none the less. Now, having said that, spend the money on some color other than yellow and blue, then buy something to make it go faster or handle better!

are you looking for a new color or just a new design on the existing colors......it may sound funny but ive always thought a dark green might look good, DARK green not bowlingball green and maybe go from there. Dont worry about the critics man your car is one of the first holly ***** I had on this forum. good luck

I'm not currently looking for a totally new color, although that may happen in the future. As of now, I'm just considering putting some type of graphic or air brush work on the car.

BTW, thanks for the compliment. I really don't understand why some people have to voice their negativity. If I don't like something, I usually keep my opinion to myself. It's called being polite and courteous. Things this world needs a lot more of.

i'll post this so thac doesn't have to. his car is winning shows, and making money, that's more than I can say for a lot of our cars(including mine), if you saw how much time and effort went into this car you'd be amazed, there wasn't a car that came close at last weekends tuner showdown here in tampa.

OK, here goes...



I added the lines from the body molding, threw some stock rims on, and keyed it out of sheer jealously.

Actually, I wouldn't change a thing, I think your car looks mint as is.

-D

PS. I'll be paying carexcess a visit soon, wouldn't mind seeing the car in person.

Nice job, got a good laugh out of that. The name of the shop is now xs-customs, www.xs-customs.com Jerry owns it by himself now and it's still in the same location in case you didn't know. Also, I'd be more than happy to show you the car, just let me know when you're going to be there.
xs customs phone # is 727 535 5011
